PIXEL Desktop is a modified LXDE for raspberry pi. It has also an x86 version of it. It is currently available in debian linux distro. Is there any way to extract all the PIXEL desktop files and libraries from debian distro and convert it to puppy packages? I wish this desktop is more lighter than lxde and xfce.

If you use xfce4 with pcmanfm or thunar you can try to emulate PIXEL, but the icon theme need more items for a pc desktop, this is just a example
Here rox with the openbox theme

I would like your help in creating a Blog Post, that gives someone the exact steps to use LxPupSC with the PIXEL overlay. Maybe even I could host a single .ISO download that already has PIXEL and LxPupSC combined.
Many people using the PIXEL Debian 8 Live image have asked for a way to install to hard disk this PIXEL Debian 8 Live. I think LxPupSC as a base would have most all those issues ironed out and operational on so many different x86 computers and x86 hardware. They just need the same looking PIXEL DE to operate from with the same set of base programs that PIXEL DE offers.
PuppyLInux already boots from CD-R or USB Flash drive and has persistance. PuppyLinux seems to have a complete set of small working programs that answer 90+% of the users needs for connecting to the internet.

- it would be quite simple to make an .iso which included the ydrv
- this is not Raspian - it is Puppy Linux with the Pixel DE - so people should not expect to find the same set of applications - e.g. the web browser, the office "suite", network manager etc. etc. are all completely different, as is the menu contents and structure
- LxPupSc is Slackware based so the repository is different to Debian and the Package Manager is different
- the combined .iso would be <300MB whereas the Raspian .iso is 1.3GB

So I don't think it would be a good idea to promote it as equivalent to Raspian-Pixel as people are likely to be disappointed / confused.

As for instructions on how to install it - its exactly the same as any other Puppy Linux frugal install except that you would need to copy all of the .sfs from the iso to your boot medium (adrv, fdrv, zdrv, ydrv, puppy .sfs's as well as vmlinuz and initrd.gz)
